We're looking for mission and impact-driven people to build for good. Help us solve tough non-profit challenges with innovative tech.

We're looking for mission and impact-driven people to build for good. At KPCB we started the KPCB Fellows Program to bring the best design, engineering and entrepreneurial students to our portfolio companies. Our fellows inspired us to launch our Build for Good Initiative - a set of open innovation challenges for hackers and makers everywhere. We partnered with amazing non-profit organizations tackling some of the world's toughest challenges. We believe that technology has the power to truly change the world and make it a better place. As part of our Build for Good initiative, we are launching an online hackathon called the KPCB Fellows Challenge. We want you to tackle one of our challenges. We challenge you to build for good.

Challenges

We believe in helping our nonprofit partners change the world, any solutions you submit should be open - for the nonprofits and others to use and expand upon. The best solutions are the ones that we build upon and built together. Pick a challenge to tackle:

1) Create a way to address live donating to increase number of surgeries funded

All solutions must be submitted to challengepost and to the kpcbfellows.com/challenges website by August 31, 2015.

Join us at the Fellows Challenge Kickoff

We're hosting a meetup on July 1 at our San Francisco office to kickoff the Fellows Challenge. Come join us for snacks, beverages and time for forming teams. RSVP here.

The KPCB Fellows Program

All winners receive an interview for the 2016 KPCB Fellows Program. The KPCB Fellows program brings the brightest students from across the country to work at our portfolio companies including Nest, Uber, Flipboard, Shazam, Jawbone, Airware and many others. In addition, fellows experience the breadth of the KPCB network enjoying events with KPCB Partners, successful entrepreneurs, executives, thought leaders and other talented students. For more information on the KPCB Fellows program, visit www.KPCBFellows.com.

Eligibility

Anything you submit should be open sourced, you should be okay with giving your code, designs, materials to the nonprofit. We're here to help them change the world and that starts with sharing.

Previous Work

We're here to help people think about building for impact and to help our nonprofit partners find the best solutions possible. You can begin submitting solutions on June 15, 2015 and so you can begin working on ideas before this date.

Eligibility

Any student who is currently attending a U.S. institution university or college may participate in the challenge. However, winners who want to interview for the KPCB Fellows program must also meet all eligibility requirements for the program.
